Schlossberg Castle, Medieval castle in La Neuveville, Switzerland.

Schlossberg Castle stands at an elevation of 534.3 meters, featuring a trapezoidal layout that overlooks the surrounding region of La Neuveville.

The construction of Schlossberg Castle started in 1283 under Prince-Bishop Henry von Isny and concluded in 1288 under Peter Reich von Reichenstein's supervision.

The castle represents medieval Swiss architecture and serves as a testament to the territorial disputes between the Prince-Bishops of Basel and Counts of Neuchâtel.

The castle is located at Route du Château 56 in La Neuveville and operates under the management of a local community foundation.

The castellans who initially governed from Schlossberg Castle received additional rights in 1368 after successfully defending against a Bernese siege.
